Giving thanks
In: Uncategorized
28 Jan 2010Like most families, my family value to always pray during meal time. We always give thanks for the grace God provides for us. And that it will give our body the nourishment we needed. It always feels good to express the gratitude for the food. It makes us all eat more mindfully and enjoy the food more. I am sad knowing that some families pray and give thanks after they are full and satisfied. Isn’t it unfair or something? What do you think?
